And on the way back,i find this kind of Septaria large nodule full of golden and silver Pyrite,perhaps could it be very nice with a prep?

And it was time to go back home :)

Nice finds as always, Gery. It's the site that keeps on giving! All nice but I have to say I like the Sphenophyllum on red rock in particular, as humble as it may be relative to some of the others.

Beautiful specimens! Thanks for sharing your carboniferous journey. That Esphenopteris is a special find.

Start the day with a smile and get it over with.

The Eusphenopteris/Lepidodendron is a more interesting piece than I thought at first. Very nice association piece.
